[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My sister was given executor for my parents. I was so happy. She is much more organized than me and is the oldest. I was given power of attorney (which I think is harder because of the end of life plans it involves). We joke it’s because I am less emotional and wouldn’t have a problem “pulling the plug.” But I’d also be happy if they give that to her, too. We have a good relationship and and we both want what is best for our parents. This sounds like a silly pride issue. Do you not think your brother loves your parents, too, and wants the best for them? Do you think they are trying to be kind since you are already dealing with MIL? Why are you assuming the worst of everyone?[/quote]

Op here- brother is responsible too and overall good guy. We are both equally competent. He is farther away but neither of us are close by.
   I think it’s just him probably bring older and son- and my dad somewhat think my brother is pretty perfect. 
    I know it’s a lot of work- it’s really a situation where they should have and should still have a conversation to bring us together to discuss and with both of us potentially taking on the big task of senior care, would have been right thing to split the decison “approvals”. Not one in charge snd one doing so the work. I truly thing that was hurtful and wrong.[/quote]
